Description of metacrawler.com
Metacrawler appears to be a web search website centered around a simple search interface. The homepage shown in the scan presents a search bar with minimal navigation, which is consistent with a search or metasearch service designed to help users look up information on the web.
Based on the screenshot and page branding, the site appears to be operated under the MetaCrawler name, with footer text indicating ownership by Infospace Holdings LLC, a System1 company. The domain itself is long-established and has historically been associated with web search, which supports the interpretation that this is a legitimate search-related web property rather than a newly created site.
Safety Assessment for metacrawler.com
The scan results were broadly clean at the time of this scan. No security engines flagged the domain, the malware scan did not identify any flagged files, and the domain was not listed by the checked threat and phishing databases. Based on available data, no threats were detected at the time of this scan.
Additional context also supports a lower-risk assessment: the domain has been registered for many years, has an established traffic ranking, and the visible page content matches a straightforward search homepage rather than a login lure, giveaway page, or suspicious storefront. While no automated scan can guarantee future behavior, the available indicators do not suggest active malware or phishing concerns at the time of this scan.
Technical Description
The site was using a valid SSL/TLS certificate at the time of the scan, issued through Let's Encrypt and valid until late 2026. It was served through Cloudflare infrastructure, with the observed server IP resolving to Cloudflare hosting in Canada. The nameservers also point to Cloudflare, indicating the site likely uses that provider for DNS and edge delivery.
DNSSEC appears to be unsigned, which is not uncommon but means DNS responses do not benefit from DNSSEC validation. No major technical security concerns were evident from the provided scan data beyond that observation, and the site appears to be using standard modern web delivery infrastructure.
